Russian space editor Andrei Borisov has captured the fading zeitgeist of the Russian space program in a lengthy article on the new leader of Roscosmos, Dmitry Rogozin, and the changes he has proposed, as described by Ars Technica.
The article catalogs current Russian efforts to develop newer, competitive rockets and modern spacecraft. All of these efforts, Borisov finds, are behind schedule, outdated, or already non-competitive.

For example, the Russian space agency has been developing a "new" science and research module for the space station, "Nauka," since 1995. More than two decades later, the module still awaits a decision on whether it should actually be completed.
